Lately I feel like I've been pulled back into the "attention economy" again; every time I refresh the timeline, there's a new narrative, a new chain, airdrop, or subsidy... Watching others post screenshots makes me itchy. Then I think about it—being repeatedly cut off isn't usually because the strategy is bad, but because emotions are being carried away: you think you're chasing opportunities, but you're actually chasing the hype.

Recently, the competition among Layer 2s over TPS, fees, and ecological subsidies has been quite lively. I used to spend a lot of time researching it too, but the result was mostly: after researching, I just wanted to go all in. Now I set myself a simple rule: if it’s not in the plan, don’t touch it; keep stablecoins where they should be, slowly do some arbitrage/low-risk small jobs; if I really want to participate in hot topics, I only use a "small position that I won't mind losing," and once the hype dies down in a couple of days, I pull out. Basically, first get myself out of the flood of information, then see if it's worth it. That’s it for now, taking a sip of cold brew.
